This week I received an irresistible offer from my college advisor. He and his wife are down-sizing and he wanted to know if I might want his old Gourmet magazines. Despite my overflowing bookshelves, my stacks of magazines waiting to be read, and my binders of recipes waiting to be tested, I answered with an enthusiastic “YES.”
Since picking them up this morning, I’ve been a bit distracted. Ranging in date from 1987 to 1996, these magazines represent a mouthful of delicious reading and I’ve already found more than enough recipes to keep me in the kitchen for some time.
